Abstract
This invention provides user interfaces that more intuitively display physiological data obtained from physiological monitoring of one or more subjects. Specifically, the user interfaces of this invention create and display one or more avatars having behaviors guided by physiological monitoring data. The monitoring data is preferably obtained when the subject is performing normal tasks without substantial restraint. This invention provides a range of implementations that accommodate user having varying processing and graphics capabilities, e.g., from handheld electronic devices to ordinary PC type computers and to systems with enhanced graphics capabilities.

50. A system for displaying physiological information of a user comprising:
-
a wearable sensor for acquiring real time physiological data of the user; a processor operatively connected to the sensor, the processor adapted to receive the real time physiological data from the sensor; and a display for visually presenting an avatar, the avatar including a graphical element representing the real time physiological data of the user, wherein the processor dynamically changes a size of at least a portion of the graphical element in proportion to the physiological data. - View Dependent Claims (51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56)
